Police are investigating after corrosive liquid was poured over a car in Belton causing £500 worth of damage.

The black Volkswagon Golf was targeted between 9pm on November 8 and 10.30am the following day while it was parked outside a home in Paddock Close.

Extensive damage was caused to the back near side window, roof, side panel and paintwork on the door.
